LOST TICKETS/CAN'T FIND TICKETS YOU CLAIMED?

If you cannot find your tickets:

• Search your inbox and your spam folder for emails from ecbox@binghamton.edu
• The email would have arrived immediately after claiming your tickets, there is no delay in the tickets being sent so if you know what day they claimed on, you can check by date as well
• Once in the email, there is a .pdf attachment that will have the tickets which can either be forwarded on to guests or printed off as paper ticket

If you still can't find the tickets, you can log back into the link available here, and print them or resend them from your account.

• In the top right corner will be a button with your first initial of your first name. Click on that and select "My Account" from the dropdown menu. This will bring a new page with a handful of options and you can click on either "View Your Orders" or "My E-Delivery Items" and both options will allow them to access your tickets.

The timing for all Commencement ceremonies/activities and the number of guest tickets allowed per graduate will depend on the COVID situation as well as the NYS guidelines in place at the time of the event. Guests who are making travel and hotel arrangements are encouraged to make reservations that are refundable. We ask that you remain flexible as we must prioritize safety.

BE AWARE OF TICKET SCAMS:

INTERNATIONAL GUESTS

 If your family needs to apply for a visa in order to attend the Commencement ceremony, you as the student can write a letter of invitation. Be sure to include:

• Your name, the reason for living in the U.S. and current immigration status (likely F-1 or J-1)
• The names of your family members who wish to visit, an explanation of the purpose of their visit and how long they expect to stay
• A copy of your I20’s/DS-2019, if you feel comfortable doing so.

If you require confirmation of Commencement dates on University Letterhead, visit the ISSS Forms webpage and find the “Invitation to Graduation” form under “Letters of Support.”

If you still have questions regarding international guests, please contact International Student and Scholar Services at isss@binghamton.edu.
